AN58827 discusses how internal trace and switch resistance can affect the performance of a design and how these
®
issues can be avoided by understanding a few basic details about the PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP internal analog
architecture. Trace and switch resistance are not a concern for most applications. However, this application note
teaches the designer when resistance in the signal path may cause measurement errors.
Introduction
When you add a wire or trace on your PCB, you add some
amount of resistance in the signal path. This is also true
when adding signal paths and switches in an integrated
circuit. The only difference is the scale, but Ohms law still
holds true.
The PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP parts are possibly the most
flexible mixed signal controllers on the market today. The
internal analog switch matrix provides many options when
routing signals between analog blocks and GPIO (General
Purpose Input and Output) pins. The signal paths and
switches required to provide this flexibility also add
resistance between the signal source and its destination. A
detailed diagram of the analog blocks, GPIOs, and switch
matrix is located in the Appendix at the end of the
application note.
Calculating Path Resistance
To determine the resistance of a path between an analog
block and a GPIO pin, add up the resistance for each switch
and trace in the signal path. Table 1 gives an approximation
for the worse case resistance of each analog path and
switch.

The two resistors Rpath and RInput form a voltage divider so

Equation 1
Equation 2
Substituting the actual resistance values in the equation,
you get a signal path resistance of about 700 Ω. The actual
resistance may be less, because the resistance of the
analog global shown in Table 1 is the worst case. Values
between the absolute minimum and maximum were used for
this example. Most signals follow only a section of the
global, not the entire length, so its resistance will be less.
After calculating an approximate signal path resistance, the
designer must ask himself, “Does the 700 Ω affect the
design?” The buffered input to the ADC has an input
resistance of greater than 100 MΩ. Figure 2 shows how a
voltage divider is created for any analog block that has an
input resistance less than infinity and more than zero.

Substituting with the actual resistor values;

The upper half of Figure 1 shows a schematic in
PSoC Creator™. The lower half of Figure 1 shows one
possible path routed by PSoC Creator to connect a GPIO
pin to the positive input of the ADC block. If we analyze the
signal path, the signal will pass through two switches and an
analog global bus. The total resistance of this path may be
approximated by the following equation for this example:
RTotal  RSW1  RAG  RSW 2
% Error 
700
(100,000,000  700 )
*100  0.0007 % Equation 4
Because the input resistance is greater than 100 MΩ and
the actual path resistance is less than 700 Ω, the error
introduced by the path resistance is less than 0.0007% or
7 ppm, which is insignificant for most applications. This is
also true when using the Comparator, Opamp, and PGA
where the input resistance is also greater than 100 MΩ.
When does Resistance Matter?
The input resistance for most PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP blocks
is shown in Table 2. When the input resistance is greater
than 100 MΩ as in the example described earlier, the error
is insignificant. On the other hand, where the input
resistance is less than a 100 MΩ, the path resistance may
be significant. A couple of examples where this is a concern
is the un-buffered mode of the DelSig ADC and the inverting
input of the PGA.

Inverting PGA
When using the DelSig ADC in the un-buffered mode, the
input resistance may be low enough to adversely affect the
accuracy of the design. The input resistance of the DelSig
ADC is a function of the ADC clock and input capacitance.
The input capacitance of the DelSig ADC is between 1 and
16 pF depending on the range and resolution. The actual
input capacitance for each range of the DelSig ADC may be
found in the ADC’s datasheet. The following equation is
used to calculate the input resistance of the DelSig ADC.
Rinput
1

(Cinput * Fclk )
R1 is either 20 K or 40 KΩ for in the Inverting PGA. If the
path resistance is as high as 700 Ω and R1 is 20 KΩ the
gain error is about 3.5% less than expected or about 1.7% if
R1 is 40 KΩ.
Equation 5
For example, if the DelSig ADC clock is 3.0 MHz, the
resolution is 15 bits and the range is set to ±1 V, the input
capacitance is about 4 pF. Using this equation, the input
resistance is about 83 KΩ. Using Equation 3, a path
resistance of about 700 Ω can introduce an error of 0.7%,
which may be significant. The user has the option to either
use the ADC’s input buffer to eliminate this error, or to
continue using the unbuffered input and compensate using
firmware.
In the case of the Inverting PGA, the input trace resistance
affects the gain. The path resistance adds to R1 in Figure 3.
The example project demonstrates a method to measure the
temperature of an external diode, called Delta-VBE. This is a
popular method to measure the die temperature of large
CPUs and FPGAs. Manufacturers of these parts place a PN junction on the die and expose the two terminals from this
junction to pins on the package. The Delta-VBE method is
immune to VBE offsets and does not require temperature
calibration. All that is required is an accurate voltmeter and
an adjustable current source. The current source only needs
to apply two different currents with a known ratio. The
absolute value of these currents is not important, just the
ratio of the two currents. When each of the currents is
applied, the voltage across the P-N junction is measured.
The ratio of the currents should be about 10 or more so that
the difference in VBE is large enough to make an accurate
measurement.
PSoC 3 and PSoC 5LP contain the two components
required to perform this measurement, an accurate ADC
and an adjustable current source. The following equation is
used to calculate the temperature for this method.

Now that the method and equation are fixed, all that is left is
to implement it with a PSoC. Figure 4 shows the schematic
from PSoC Creator with an external 2N3904 NPN transistor,
as the temperature sensor.

Because the circuit uses a current source and we know that
switches and internal traces are resistive, an I*R drop is the
most likely suspect. Adding the actual resistors to the
schematic that are inherent from routing generates a more
accurate schematic as shown in Figure 5. The input
resistance to the ADC is relatively high; therefore, the
voltage drop across R2, R4, and R5 are insignificant. There
is a voltage drop across R1, but it is out of the measurement
path. R3 on the other hand, is directly in the measurement
path. The current path between the current source (IDAC8)
and the external transistor is directly through R3, which
causes a significant I*R drop across R3. When the ADC
measures the Base-Emitter voltage (VBE) of the external
transistor, it also measures this voltage drop across R3.

The project is implemented, compiled, and downloaded, but
the temperature measurement is much higher than
expected, over 60 °C. You had expected something closer
to 25 °C, room temperature. This is an error of about 35 °C,
what could have caused this error?

With a current ratio of 10, the volts per degree Centigrade is
approximately 200 µV/C. The temperature error is the
measured temperature minus the actual temperature. In this
case, it is about 35 °C (60 °Cmeasured – 25 °Cactual). So, the
voltage error is 35 °C * 200 µV/°C or about 7 mV. This
voltage error is the I*R drop across R3.
The resistance of the switches and the path is estimated by
dividing the error voltage by the difference in current.
Remember, this method switches between 10 µA and
100 µA so the current delta is 90 µA. The resistance is the
voltage drop divided by the current delta, 7 mV/90 µA =
78 Ω. This can easily be explained by the resistance of a
switch (XLarge) and some internal routing resistance
defined in Table 1 on page 1, which confirms that the error
is caused by the routing resistance.

PSoC® 3 and PSoC 5LP Internal Analog Routing Considerations
Fixing the Problem
Alternative Solution
Now that the mystery is solved, how do you fix the problem?
One way is to route the current source out to its own pin.
This eliminates the switch resistance that was shared by
both the current source and measurement path. The ADC
now measures only VBE and not the extra voltages caused
by an I*R drop. See Figure 7 for the new schematic. When
the project is rebuilt, compiled, and run, the calculated
temperature is within a couple degrees of the actual
temperature expected. This small change in the circuit has a
big impact on the accuracy of the design, but does cost an
extra GPIO pin. This design is a corner case, but it
emphasizes how a designer should always be aware of
trace resistance both inside and outside the device. Review
the internal routing in Figure 8.
With PSoC there is almost always an alternative solution to
every design. In the previous solution the temperature error
was eliminated, but at the cost of an additional GPIO pin.
This may not always be an alternative if your design is tight
on pins. Perhaps a better solution is to use the fact that
there is both the standard analog global connection as well
as the dedicated high current connection to GPIO P0[6].
This way, the path from the IDAC8 and the path from the
ADC can be separate until the actual connection to the pad
at GPIO P0[6], and not require a separate pin. See the
routing schematic at Figure 9.

If you evaluate the internal routing in Figure 10, you can see
that the current and measurement paths are truly
independent up to P0[6]. If the external diode sensor is near
the PSoC, or the PCB trace resistance is low, this is a good
solution. If the sensor is connected via a resistive path from
the PSoC, the initial solution may be a better alternative,
since sharing the current and measurement path is what
originally caused the problem.

PSoC® 3 and PSoC 5LP Internal Analog Routing Considerations
The schematic of the alternative solution and the original
have the same schematic Figure 4, so how do you force this
different route? As of PSoC Creator 2.0, an additional tool
was added to allow the designer to review and change the
route taken by any path. This tool is called the “Analog
Device Editor”. It allows the designer to alter a signal path,
and to select alternate analog blocks. The route and block
can then be locked so that the route will be static even if you
rebuild the project.

By rerouting the design, you can see the difference in the
actual route. The voltage measurement point becomes the
actual GPIO, P0[6]. No current from the IDAC8 flows in the
measurement path from the ADC. Although these two
solutions are the exact same schematic, they are routed
differently. The Analog Device Editor allows you to make
minor changes in just a few minutes. In the case of this
example project, it reduced the temperature measurement
error from totally unacceptable to down to a degree or two.
In the Document Manager, select “PSoC Creator Help”
under the “Contents” tab and navigate down to Using
Design Entry Tools/Design-Wide Resources/Analog Device
Editor. This section of the help manual will show you how to
examine and to edit your circuit’s analog. See Figure 14.

Summary
This application note helps you to think about what is going
on inside the PSoC. Usually, the current through the
switches and internal traces is so low, that you can
completely ignore voltage drops that may occur. When
dealing with current sources or inputs that do not have high
input resistance, pay extra attention to the signal path and
any voltage drops that may occur. Also, remember that
Ohms Law is the same whether the circuit is implemented
inside the PSoC or the old way, using discrete components
on a PCB. Make use of the Analog Device Editor to review
how you design has been routed. If you do find an issue,
this powerful tool can help you force a more desirable route
to achieve optimal performance.
